No criminal market scores below 4.5, which suggests that of the ten markets studied, all have at least a moderate to high negative influence on society. However, with regards to criminal actors, no single actor type appears to dominate organised crime, with scores for criminal networks, state-embedded actors and foreign actors ranging between 5.5 and 6. Overall, Tanzania has become a strategic and important player in a number of regional illicit economies. These include growing drugs markets for cannabis and heroin, where the prevalence of users is high and Tanzanians play an instrumental role in trafficking networks. While resilience is deemed as moderate, ranking 22nd, with the government prioritising the fight against organised crime, evidence of tangible implementation is lacking. Experts note the shrinking space for civil society, and state targeting of lower-level drug users and trafficking victims, as being of significant concern.
